To kill bermuda grass: Mulch heav-

penetrate through. First, before put
ting down the mulch lay down sticks
with Stats or brush, laid crosswise, to
keep the mulch from touching the

used for the purpose, touches the
ground the bermuda grass will grow
through. By the above method it will
come to the top of the ground. and if
there is vacant dark space above it

BLIGHT IN ORCHARDS.
The Only Elective Cure for This serIc
Disease Of Eruft Trees.

The Only Effective Cure for This Serious
Disease of Fruit Trees.
One of the most formidable diseases
to which fruit trees are liable is the
fire blight. - 1t attacks the trees at
different periods of the growing sea-
SON. from June to September, and gen.
orally the young parts first. The leaves
flag. the sap oozes out in globules
through the bark and has disagree
able odor, and the diseased branch
turns black. as if it had been burned
by fire. When the pear-tree is attacked
it is a difficult matter to save it, the
disease spreads so rapidly, In apple
and ounce trees it is less fatal, rarely
killing more than a portion of the tree.
Scientists and farmers alike differ in
their opinions as to what causes fire
blight, whether it be the sun, the at
mosphere or an insect. Nor do author
tiles in the matter agree in their
treatment of fire blight. In the
opinion of the writer the only effect
i've and trustworthy treatment is
to cut away. the very day the dis
case is discovered, the blighted parts
into the healthy wood where there is
no trace of the disease, and burn up
Immediately all the diseased portions
cut off. Charles Downing said: when
fire blight has actually appeared, the
only remedy seems to be the knife and
the saw, most vigorously applied, to
eradicate every symptom of diseased
and discolored bark or wood. If you
would save your tree. cut at once on
the first apparent symptom of the dis
ease, and be sure you cut it clean out.
P. Barry says: 1.-THE only remedy for
fire blight is to cut instantly the blight
ed parts into the healthy wood and
burn them up Immediately.
Twig blight attacks the young shoots
of the current seasons growth and
causes these to wither and become
brown and curly in midsummer The
cause is uncertain and the injury is not
materially great. The remedy is cut
ting away at the first appearance of
the trouble.
Apple blight, like the dreaded fire
blight, is a serious disease. 1t attacks a
whole branch or limb. and someti mes
half of the top of a tree is destroyed be-
fore it becomes apparent to an ordinary
observer. Again there is no remedy
except to cut away the deceased por-
tions and burn these up. The pear
leaf blight is sort of rust that APP
pears on the leaves during July and
August, first in small brown spots.
These spots spread rapidly over the
leaves until their growth is stopped.
To avoid the evil effect of leaf blight the
great point is to get a rapid, vigorous
growth before midsummer.
Readers, especially those having
small experience, will doubtless be dis
| appointed because long list of So
! called remedies has not been given for
blight-remedies such as are adver-
tised from year to year by many
writers. These have been avoided be-
cause there is in reality but one course
to pursue-the heroic one of cutting
away the deceased parts and Destroy

FOOD FOR CHILDREN.
The Necessity of Boiling Milk, Before It
Is Given as Nourishment.

Is Given Nourishment.
While milk is kept on ice, in the
milkman's can or in the domestic re-
frigerator, it is continually receiving
the germs, becoming more and more
infected with the germs of decomposi-
ton. The practical lesson from all
this is the necessity of boiling milk or
other articles of food for children,
shortly before 1t is given as nourish-
ment This can not be too strongly
impressed upon the minds of all con-
cerned in the welfare of children, and
the younger the child the greater the
Importance of observing this rule.
In the earliest months of life feed
ing-bottle of some sort is a necessity,
but it should be discarded rs soon as
possible. A child may be taught to
drink from a glass OF cup at quite an
early age, and the earlier the better.
Ehe construction of the nursing-bottle
is such that great care constantly OBJ
served, will at once insure safety, The
simpler the form of the bottle the
easier it will be to keep it

bicarbonate of soda, after thorough
scalding, while the other contains the
food for immediate feeding. Carelessness
in the management of the feeding-bot-
tie is the cause of death in numberless
instances every summer. The presence
of deeomposing food in the digestive
tract of the child acts as powerful
irritant. probably by reason of poisons
developed from undigested articles of
food by the process of putrefaction.
Pure sugar, than which nothing can
be less harmful. when decomposed by
the growth of the yeastplant, produces
alcohol and carbonic acid gas, both
powerful poisons to the higher grades
of life, and in considerable quantity
destructive to the very agents Che
plantsD which produced them. In the
same way all food stufs, when de-
composed, produced deadly poisons.
Some of them act something like

table poisons, and cause profuse

There Is An Acid in the Blood

So say pathologists-which is present IN
rheumatism. This, coming into contact
and muscles, causes the acute pains called
rheumatic and arthritic. 1t is expelled by
Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, through the
medium of renewed healthful action of the
kidneys and bladder, which carry off i'm
purities that, if allowed to remain, give rise
not only to rheumatism, but to govt, dropsy
and gravel. Dyspeptic troubles also cease
when the Bitters is taken to relieve them.

The news of the situation in France
since election of Sadi-Carnot as presi-
dent is not of a cheering character. Ca
Diagrams make the most extraordinary
statement that the Tirard ministry
would hold no longer than the holidays
Whether this means that the ministry
was intended only as little holiday
diversion, or that the holidays inter-
fered with the means of consultation
necessary to bring about the agreement
offactons,is not stated. Upon the whole,
the manner of the French republic and
of its people is not after the model OF
our own, and the concessions among par
tsans necessary there would not count
for much among US. But meanwhile,
the deepest interest is felt in the cause
of the French republic, and in its con-
tinuance, we believe, lies most impor-
tant influence towards the extension of
popular liberty in Europe.

the assessor to tax them as other private
property is taxed. The editor of this
paper made a proposition to the board
last spring to furnish them with such a
list compiled from the records of the
land office, for reasonable compensa-
tion, and at their next January session
we s all renew it. The county could
make no better investment. AS citi-
zen and taxpayer of this county, we OBJ
ject to the inequality which taxes one
man the full value of his land, while
his neighbor, who owns as good piece
adjoining, is allowed to escape without
contributing towards the support of the
county government.
There is another feature in this ine-
quality which shows our county up in a
poor light. When We were in Portland
lately we took occasion to visit the rail-
road offices and interview the railroad
officials about their intention of build
ing railroad to Camas prairie. In the
course of conversation we were asked
what was the assessed valuation of the
real estate in Idaho county, and when
we stated the figures as given by the
assessment roll, We were greeted with
deIisive laugh. Nothing was said, but
the laugh implied that it was folly to
expect Il railroad company to spend a
million of dollars to build road to a
Slj0,000 county. On behalf of the tax
paying citizens of this county We ask
the county commissioners to give this
subject their earnest attention, and to
cause list of these lands to be given to
the assessor for purposes of taxation
next year. We believe that if This is
done, the assessed valuation of the real
estate in Idaho county will next year be
not less than $500, 900 We believe
from actual investigation of the records,
hat there are at least 800 land owners
in this county who have never been
taxed dollar on their land. The dis
trict attorney has officially advised us
that these lands are subject to taxation,
and only the action of the commission
ers is now necessary to have them
placed on next years assessment roll. |
